What is a Virtual Office?
Technically speaking, it is a form of subcontracting and subleasing. You will have the opportunity to use MY OFFICE facilities and support services without the need to be physically present in the office premises all the time. You may also have the option of renting anywhere from a single desk space to a group of offices within MY OFFICE space sharing common reception, meeting room, pantry and other amenities.
What is the difference between a Virtual Office and a Business Centre?
A Business Centre provides the 'physical' amenities and services of an office. Those who would require an office for the day would go to a business center so they would have access to facilities like work desks, fax machines, computers, etc. A Virtual Office is also a business center but with the additional features of a 'long-distance' office. One need not be physically present in the office but would still have access to its facilities and support services through modern technology, such us, telecommunication equipments, computers and the internet.
